Hi Skip,
Please check the PSD file that you generated on your desktop machine
in Photoshop. In case you don't have access to Photoshop: you can
download a free trial version from adobe.
The PSD-file format is quite complicated, and it may be that the file
is accepted by Photoshop but not by Corel, eg if Corel only reads
Photoshop 2.5 files.
